For proper inspection/adjustment of the wheel align-ment, check and adjust these items before checkinq thealignment:
. Check that the suspension is not modified.. Check the tire size and tire pressure.
. Check th( runout of the wheels and t;res,. Check the suspension ball joints. (Hold a wheel withyour hands, and move it up and down and right andleft to check for wobbling.)
Inspection
Use commercially-available computerized four wheelalignment equipment to measure wheel alignment (cast-
er, camber, toe, and turning angle). Follow the equip-ment manufacturer's instructions.
Check the caster angle.
Caster angle: 2'10':t 1"
lf out of specification, check for bent or damagedsuspension components.

Knuckle/Hub Replacement
Note these items during replacement:
. Replace the selt-locking nuts after removal.
. The vehicle should be on the ground before any bolts or nuts connected to rubber mounts or bushings are tightened.
. Torque the castle nuts to the lower torque specifications, then tighten them only far enough to align the slots with each
pin hole. Do not align the nuts by loosening.
o Use only genuine Honda wheel weights for aluminum wheels. Non'genuine wheel weights may corrode and damage
the aluminum wheels.
. Onthealuminum wheels, remove the center cap from the inside of the wheel after removing the wheel.
. Before installing the brake disc, clean the mating surfaces of the front hub and brake disc.
. Before installing the wheel. clean the mating surfaces ofthe brake disc and wheel.
. Wipe off the grease before tightening the nuts at the balljoints.

lnstall the brake pads and pad shims correctly.
Install the pad with the wear indicator on the inside.
. When reusing the pads, always reinstall thebrake pads in their original positions to prevent
loss of braking efficiency.. Contaminated brake discs or pads reduce stop-ping ability. Keep grease off the discs and pads.

Pivot the caliper down into position, being careful
not to damage the pin boot. Install the caliper bolt
and tighten it,
Press the brake pedal several times to make sure
the brakes work, then test-drive.
NOTE: Engagement of the brake may require agreater pedal stroke immediately after the brakepads have been replaced as a set. Several applica-
tions of the brake pedal will restore the normalpedal stroke.
After installation, check for leaks at hose and linejoints and connections, and retighten if necessary.

Front Brake Caliper
Disassembly/Reassembly
. Never use an air hose or dry brush to clean brake assemblies.
. Use an OSHA approved vacuum cleaner to avoid breathing brake dust.
. Contaminated brake discs or pads reduce stopping ability.
. When reusing the pads, always reinstallthe brake pads in their original positions to prevent loss ol braking efficiency.
CAUTION:
. Do not spill brake fluid on the vehicle; it may damage the paint; if brake fluid does contact the paint, wash it off imme-
diatelY with water.
NOTEI
. To prevent spills, cover the hose joints with rags or shop towels.
. Clean all pans in brake fluid and air dry; blow out all passages with compressed air.
. Before reassembling, check that all parts are free of dust and other foreign particles.
. Replace parts with new ones whenever specified to do so.
. Make sure no dirt or other foreign matter is allowed to contaminate the brake fluid.
. Do not reuse the drained fluid.
. Always use Genuine Honda DOT 3 Brake Fluid. Using a non-Honda brake fluid can cause corrosion and decrease the
life of the system.
. Coat the piston, piston seal, and caliper bore with clean brake fluid.
. ReDlace all rubber oarts with new ones whenever disassembled.
. After installing the front brake caliper do the following.- Check for leaks at hose and line joints and connections, and retighten if necessary.- Check the brake hoses for interference and twistinq.
